N&G, the International Conference on Nutrition & Growth, is a recurring congress for pediatricians, gastroenterologists, endocrinologists, neonatologists, dietitians, nutritionists, nurses and all those involved in child development. The 14th edition, N&G 2027, takes place 18 to 20 March 2027 at VIECON, Vienna Congress & Convention Center, Messeplatz 1, 1020 Vienna. The organiser is the Kenes Group, based in Geneva (official N&G site).
The organiser now accepts late-breaking abstracts until 17 February 2027; it lists the main abstract deadline as 3 November 2026. The programme names five top topics, including Gut Microbiome, Biotics & Metabolomics and Big Data, AI & Growth Assessment, plus a Yearbook Session. A 12-member International Faculty reviews abstracts and curates the programme, and two €5,000 Best Abstract Awards are supported by an educational grant from the Nestlé Nutrition Institute.
N&G 2027 runs Thursday 18 to Saturday 20 March 2027 at VIECON, with an Opening Ceremony and Welcome Reception included in every registration. The scientific programme covers eating behaviors and obesity, gut microbiome and biotics, clinical nutrition in chronic conditions, big data and AI in growth assessment, and preterm, neonatal and infant nutrition, plus a Yearbook Session reviewing the year's key research. English is the conference language, with no simultaneous translation, and the dress code is business casual throughout. Full session details are on the organiser's own scientific programme page.

With your own kitchen, you can eat the way you do at home across three congress days. Sort out your registration early: the early rate holds until 6 January 2027, and the organiser accepts late-breaking abstracts until 17 February 2027.
Read the organiser's general information page for the business casual dress code and other practical details before you travel. Pack for March in Vienna: a warm layer and something waterproof, since roughly 1 day in 6 in this window has seen measurable rain or snow.
